An ancient board game of the indigenous people of Siberia
This is a recently discovered ancient board game of the native peoples of Siberia. Until the late 2014 this game were not known to the western society, however, the game has its own very long history which is yet to be discovered.
This game was invented and played by people without written language -- naturally they managed to make the rules unprecedentedly concise. An elementary school kid will find the rules clear and will begin to play in few minutes. However, there is a fundamental difference between being able to play and being able to win. This game pretends to be simple until you meet a stronger player, and then it mysteriously becomes difficult, and you can not realize where does this difficulty come from, where does it hide?
This game is very easy to learn, yet very hard to excel at.
Countless generations of Siberian people were considering this game an "infinite source of wisdom".
Being invented and evolved for centuries in complete cultural isolation this game has no analogues in the western world of board gaming. Its overly simple material presents an extraordinary deep and very alien game, built of a handful of cubical dice and merely few sentences of rules. Despite the stunning simplicity of the rules and the material this game compares in strategic depth with the best classical western games.
We are excited to present you this ancient marvel in the modern shape of a mobile application.
